Wishing You a Sweet Christmas

Happy Sunday My Blogger Friends

My blog post for today is KICKING OFF the "30-Day Countdown to Christmas".   This countdown will include a new card or project I created for Christmas this year........And here is Day 24 of my "30-Day Countdown to Christmas............

My "Sweet" card for today ....... starts off with a White base card.

Next.....I added a panel of Cinnamon Cider cardstock along with a 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper' right across the center of my card.

Then I got busy and created a sentiment panel in the center of my card.  To create this ..... I added a Cinnamon Cider 'Scallop Contours Dies' and topped it off with a White panel that was embossed with the 'Checks & Dots Embossing Folder'.

Next, I added a star cookie sentiment piece ....... That was cropped out using one of the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Cards'.  I added Stampin' Dimesionals to the back of that star cookie and popped it right onto the White cener panel.

To add one additional element to this card ...... I punched out two little peppermint candies from the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper' and added those to the right hand side of my embossed white panel.

And that's all it took to create this DARLING card.

What do you think my friends????

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share another '30-Day Countdown to Christmas' creation with you ...... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!

           Happy Saturday My Blogger Friends!

My blog post for today is KICKING OFF the "30-Day Countdown to Christmas".   This countdown will include a new card or project I created for Christmas this year........And here is Day 23 of my "30-Day Countdown to Christmas............

This card was a version of a card that we made at the Cozy Craft Retreat in September ....... But I changed my design up and created it my way.

We started with a White base card ....... And added a white embossed panel to the top.  We used the 'Wintry Embossing Folder' on the top portion of that White panel and that created some INSTANT FUN to this card.

Next, I added a panel of the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper' to the bottom portion of my card and added a piece of the 'Real Red Ruffled Ribbon' across my card.

My sentiment is from the 'Frosted Gingerbread' set and that is stamped at the bottom of my 4" x 2-3/4" Real Red panel.  To the top of that panel, I added a 3-1/2" x 2" panel of Old Olive card stock.  My santa sleigh die-cut is from the 'Giving Gifts Dies' and another White panel with the same 'Wintry Embossing Folder' piece was added behind that.

I'm just CRAZY about the way this card turned out.......

What do you think my friends????

My blog post for today is KICKING OFF the "30-Day Countdown to Christmas".   This countdown will include a new card or project I created for Christmas this year........And here is Day 21 of my "30-Day Countdown to Christmas............

This fun card was another card I created at the Cozy Craft Retreat back in September.

This card starts out with a base card from the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Cards & Envelopes.

To the top, I added a few elements included in the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Card Pack'.

The "H" letters were cropped out from the 'Playful Alphabet Dies' ...... And the "O" was created from the snowflake stickers included int he Memories & More Card Pack.

The sentiment is also from that same Memories & More Card Pack......And all I did was remove the sticker portion and added 'Stampin' Dimensionals' to the back before adhering down to my card.

This card is such a SWEET little creation.

My blog post for today is KICKING OFF the "30-Day Countdown to Christmas".   This countdown will include a new card or project I created for Christmas this year........And here is Day 18 of my "30-Day Countdown to Christmas............

I still have a couple more cards that were created at the Cosy Craft Retreat that Lorri Heilling offered back in September.  Today's card is ADORABLE and FUN!

Here's another card that starts out with one of the base cards from the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Memories & More Cards & Envelopes'.

To the top of that base card ....... I created a cut-out tree that uses pieces from the 'Gingerbread & Peppermint Designer Series Paper'.

The sentiment is from the 'Christmas to Remember' set ..... And that is stamped with Real Red ink.

Can't believe how QUICK this card came together.

Dare I say......I made a few of these!
